A lot of Celtic fans have been reacting to a tweet that was recently posted by the club’s official Twitter account which relayed some comments on the “unified” nature of the Hoops’ dressing room which were made by the Glasgow club’s French centre-back Christopher Jullien.
Jullien’s comments come before Celtic are set to face Serie A leaders AC Milan in UEFA Europa League action on Thursday.
The Hoops were knocked out of this competition last week when they suffered a 4-1 loss to Sparta Prague and that was followed by a 2-0 loss to Ross County at the weekend which knocked Celtic out of the Scottish League Cup.
However, despite Celtic’s poor run of form, which has seen them earn just one win in their last nine games in all competitions ahead of Thursday’s meeting with Milan, Jullien has claimed that Celtic’s dressing room is “unified like never before” and “are going to do everything to fix the results.”
After the £5.4m-rated defender’s comments were shared by Celtic on Twitter, many Hoops supporters have replied to the club’s tweet to share their thoughts on what Jullien had to say.
So, what did these Celtic fans make of Jullien’s comments?
? CJ: “The dressing room is unified like never before. We are strong together and the players are behind the staff, and the staff are behind us. We are going to do everything to fix the results.”
More from @Chri6ViF shortly ?

These comments drew a largely negative reaction from the Celtic fans who replied to this tweet from the club, with plenty of Hoops fans questioning how genuine Jullien’s claims are and one particular supporter of the Glasgow club indicating that they believe the 27-year-old’s comments show that Neil Lennon “is the problem” at Parkhead.
Just confirms that the manager is the problem then if that’s the case. If everyone is trying 100% for him and he still keeps losing then he’s doing a lot of things wrong.

You call that unified, we’re all in trouble.

Do you believe Jullien?
YES
NO
Never thought I would see the day Celtic would lie like this to its own fans.
Time for a boardroom change.— Thør (@CELTIC2019) December 2, 2020
All the players are obviously quoting the Peter Lawwell script. That’s the 3rd player since last week. It stinks of dressing room politics

So, despite the seemingly positive nature of Jullien’s comments, it’s clear from these tweets that plenty of Celtic fans are simply fuming over the club’s recent results.
